Something to think about, if the writer’s get the royalties they’re looking for from DVD and digital distribution content, will that mean the studios will upcharge companies like Netflix and Apple to distribute their content. And if so how will that affect your Netflix monthly fee?

If the price point (around $800) comes way down - this is definitely the way forward. It would mean the end of the format war by irrelevance. Comcast is also shooting for a similar device by the end of the year.
